WINS He Thrown INTO the Sea {?

A Halifax On. s. special says A:
Harry Nelson, John Brandt, and Al
fred Nordquest, seamen Of the Lunen-
burg brigantine Ethel, which left ST.
Anne's, G. b., for Turks island June
9Th under command OF Captain ATen-
burg, says that Charles Edwards, a
more than usually intelligent English
man, fifty years old, who was cook and
steward, got drunk at st. Anne's and
was unfit for work. In an effort to
sleep off his drunken stupor he sought
refuge under the topgallant fore
castle. Captain Arenburg found kim
and slushed him with water sew
eral times. Edwards escaped to
his berth, but was drowned ont Of
that by the captain. The man pleaded
with the skipper to be allowed to sleep
off his intoxication, but the captain ran
him aft and nearly over the rail. Then
he was ordered to the cabin, where the
crew heard sounds which indicated
that Edwards was being kicked around
the cabin. Edwards was not seen on
the ship again, but when he was missed
the ship was put about and Edwards
was found floating mile astern. Life
was not extinct, but he died as soon as
taken on board. His back nud left
shoulder were found to be terribly
bruised. He leaves a wife and children
in ENGLAND.

woLsELEy ON LEE.
Hts Reply 10 Gcaeras sherman and
JeHerson Davis.

Lord Wolseley has written letter to
General g. q. Dahlgren in reply to
the criticism by General Sherman and
the attack by jefferson Davis upon his
paper on the character Of General Lee.
The letter has been published in the
New York Sun and is az follows:
HILL STREET, LONDON, W.,
June 6, 1887.
Sir,-I am much obliged for your
interesting letter about the criticisms
of General Sherman and Mr.. Davis
upon my short review OF General
Longs history OF General Lee.
You ash me il imean to answer those
comments. i have no such intention.
Both those gentlemen had much better,
think, address themselves to General
Long upon the historical points they
dispute. From his close intimacy with
General Lee he is more likely to be
correct than they can be regarding the
doings of the great man he served so
we'll and whose history he has written
with so much affection and ability.
Anything coming from the pen of
distinguished soldier like General
Sherman will always be of interest and
weight. | have so much sincere re-
spect for his military character and for
his great achievements that were he to
differ from me in opinion upon any
campaign in which he, like myself, had
taken no part, and of which, therefore,
he was, like myself, merelyan unpreju-
diced commentator, / should hesitate
before expressed any views at variance
with his. In the present instance,
however, / think the outside world,
who must be the great jury to event
ually settle all such contested matters
of opinion, will attach more weight to
the opinions Of European students of
war upon the events of the great Con-
federate struggle than even to those OF
the most eminent American generals
like General Sherman, the reason being
that men who, like him, played most
distinguished part in that war can
scarcely be regarded as impartial
judges.
have read his remarks upon me
with deep interest. for he writes like a
soldier and gentleman.
OF poor Mr. Davis's letter prefer
saving little. When | remember his
career and his present position. L can
sympathize with his dislike to all out
side criticism upon the events in which
General Lee achieved such immortal
renown. ] am sorry that man who
had the privilege of being friend of
that high bred Virginia gentleman and
soldier should write as lie has done OF
one who is a complete stranger to him
of one who has committed what, in
Mr.. Davis's eyes, is evidently the un-
pardonable fault of presuming to criti-
CHE the policy and acts Of the ex-Con-
federate President. Mr.. Davis's self
appreciation causes him to think him
self greater man than those who deal
with him historically are prepared to
admit. remain, sir, faithfully yours,
WoLsELEY.

wIIISTLING UNOER WATER.
EdisOn's Scheme OF Cemrn unicatiOn
Reiueen steamships at Sea.


A Philadelphia special says: Thomas
A. Edison is here buying electrical APP
paratus for his laboratory at Orange,
n. j. He said to-day that he had spent
over $4,000, 600 IN experiments. Then
be sat down and told about his latest
discovery, by which messages can be
transmitted from ship to ship by means
of steam whistles operated by keys very
much like the Geographic instrument.
All his experiments SO far have been
confined 10 the wntcrs of the CalOOsa-
hatchic. where he has succeeded in
conveying Ineligible messages a dis
lance Of one mile.
The principle on which Edison will
endeavor to perfect his experiment is
the remarkable facility afforded by
water for transmitting sound. Divers
in the ocean have heard the swish OF
steamers wheels when fifteen miles
away, and Mr.. Edison thinks he can
transmit his message from ship to ship
at least distance of seven miles. he
purposes, after he has perfected his APP
paratus. to have the large ocean
steamers equipped with the steam
whistles and trsnsmitters. Under the
water-line of each steamer will be a
soundcr connected with the captains
cabin by thin transmitting wire run
ming through tube. When the cap
tain Of one vessel wants to signal an
other he will sit down at his keyboard,
turn the steam on his whistle, manipu-
late the keys, and send the message out
into the waves that break against the
sounder. This sonnd will pass I'M
broken from wave to wave until it runs
up against the sounder Of any vessel
that may be within reach of the volume
Of sound.
AS soon as the sound waves strike the
sounder of the hull of the vessel within
reach the message will run over the
electrical wire to the captains cabin,
where it will ring an electrical bell. An
attendant will then take down the mes
sage as it comes from the water, by
means of keys, as comfortably and cor
rectly as though he were sitting in a
telegraph office.
After the message has been received
the captain can swing his vessel around
and continue the message through seven
miles more of water in the same direc-
ton until it strikes another vessel,
when the operation may be again re-
peated until the breadth of the ocean
has been crossed.
Mr.. Edison seems to be confident
that his experiments will succeed.

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatchl
TREvILIAN's, July 7, 1887.
Refreshing showers for the past few
weeks have wonderfully improved the
looks of the crops. Corn IS on boom,
and the recent setting of tobacco is
rapidly pushing on. 1t is estimated
that very small crop of the tweed "
will be grown in this county this sea-
son probably not one fifth of the
usual amount. The advance in price
is gratifying to those parties who have
last years crop still on. hand. There
will be heavy shipments made from this
neighbOrhood ms soon as feasible. 1t
is said there is quite a demand for the
heavy leaf-Louisa cherry colored.
Wheat is looking quite poor, except IN
certain localities, notably the Green
Springs district, and oats, with few
exceptions, 10 better. Harvesting is
nearly over, and the threshers are on
the road in force.
The pubic-school matters are about
closing up for the year, and i'll this
portion of the county the board report
q handsome surplus as well As better
schools and more Of them. The board
of the county, at the suggestion and
under the supervision. OF Superintendent
+. Il. West, Jr., have decided to es-
tablish at Louisa Courthouse a public
graded school of high rank. This will
no doubt prove success. There will
be a music aud art department con-
nected with the high school.

pie are spending the summer ia this
